Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?
Jess is the most creative, dedicated teacher I have ever met, and I have been a teacher for 30 years. She has been going through serious health issues and still gets to school and gives 100% to her students and supports her staff every single day. Administrators and teachers alike love her. She has turned scores around in her school dramatically. She is an inspiration for not only educators, but for every human. She deserves to be honored. She is a true warrior!!!
